“The Trump administration on Wednesday told U.S. government agencies to remove Kaspersky Lab products from their networks, saying it was concerned the Moscow-based cyber security firm was vulnerable to Kremlin influence and that using its anti-virus software could jeopardize national security,” Reuters reports. “In a statement, Kaspersky Lab rejected the allegations, as it has done repeatedly in recent months, and said its critics were misinterpreting Russian data-sharing laws that only applied to communications services.”

“The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a directive to federal agencies ordering them to identify Kaspersky products on their information systems within 30 days and begin to discontinue their use within 90 days,” Reuters reports. “The order applies only to civilian government agencies and not the Pentagon, but U.S. intelligence leaders said earlier this year that Kaspersky was already generally not allowed on military networks.”

“Rob Joyce, the White House cyber security coordinator, said Wednesday at the Billington CyberSecurity Summit that the Trump administration made a ‘risk-based decision’ to orderKaspersky Lab’s products removed from federal agencies,” Reuters reports. “Asked by Reuters whether there was a smoking gun showing Kaspersky Lab had provided intelligence to the Russian government, Joyce replied: ‘As we evaluated the technology, we decided it was a risk we couldn’t accept.'”

Kaspersky has offered its native code for an expertise, so what is the issue?

Also, after Snowden revelations the idea that Russian companies are somehow exclusive about being possibly dependent on the government is ridiculous. Whatever Russians are doing in this regard pales in comparison to the giant totalitarian spying infrastructure that NSA operates.
